Amorosi had some very nice words to say about us in today's Philadelphia Inquirer.<br /><br />"Philadelphia's the Homophones opened the show. If you could imagine the jangling '60s Searchers hit 'Needles and Pins,' redone angrily with a deadpan Morrissey at its front, you'd get the gist of the Homophones. And they came equipped with a ukulele-filled holiday tune in 'South Philly Christmas.' What's not to love? "<br /><br />Also, The Swollen Fox posted a video of our performance on youtube. Here is a brand new song/unfinished song called "I Feel Your Pain." It is inspired by Flannery O'Connor, Syd Barrett, and the recent "It Gets Better" campaign.<br /><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/o0RiX2vKnmw" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" width="640"></iframe><br /><div style="overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-align: left; text-decoration: none; border: medium none;"><br />Read more: <a style="color: rgb(0, 51, 153);" href="http://www.philly.com/philly/entertainment/20111215_They_re_Dale_Earnhardt_Jr__Jr___hear_them_roar.html#ixzz1gdqQvLPZ">http://www.philly.com/philly/entertainment/20111215_They_re_Dale_Earnhardt_Jr__Jr___hear_them_roar.html#ixzz1gdqQvLPZ</a><br /><a style="color: rgb(0, 51, 153);" href="http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/82985662.html" target="_blank">Watch sports videos you won't find anywhere else</a><br /><br /><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/712747165037846951-7038887620423258887?l=thehomophones.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>THE HOMOPHONEShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00318810556454764365noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-712747165037846951.post-28742352988117636102011-12-06T16:04:00.000-08:002011-12-06T16:05:11.419-08:00<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/2NmdFgFyhnk" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" width="480"></iframe><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/712747165037846951-2874235298811763610?l=thehomophones.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>THE HOMOPHONEShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00318810556454764365noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-712747165037846951.post-58844204011490254142011-09-16T15:13:00.000-07:002011-09-16T15:18:10.801-07:00<object width="351" height="201" class="BLOG_video_class" id="BLOG_video-a7bfe796479cd8bb" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/get_player"><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><param name="flashvars" value="flvurl=http://v12.nonxt7.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3Da7bfe796479cd8bb%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1332233150%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D114B34D58FAFFE0F60C269718432A6C57BEE7000.5CF5DCB0CF6D461B1160332500158F2F8CE3BD49%26key%3Dck1&amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3Da7bfe796479cd8bb%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3D_OnCTx6X-r3FceNOxUDPq2uySfU&amp;autoplay=0&amp;ps=blogger"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/get_player" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"width="351" height="201" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"flashvars="flvurl=http://v12.nonxt7.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3Da7bfe796479cd8bb%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1332233150%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D114B34D58FAFFE0F60C269718432A6C57BEE7000.5CF5DCB0CF6D461B1160332500158F2F8CE3BD49%26key%3Dck1&iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3Da7bfe796479cd8bb%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3D_OnCTx6X-r3FceNOxUDPq2uySfU&autoplay=0&ps=blogger"allowFullScreen="true" /></object><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/712747165037846951-5884420401149025414?l=thehomophones.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>THE HOMOPHONEShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00318810556454764365noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-712747165037846951.post-72592318665030574052011-08-25T11:59:00.000-07:002011-08-25T12:08:17.399-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lTyB399Cyq0/Tlab4bOEzdI/AAAAAAAAAEY/m2P4deAUoeE/s1600/UNCAPPED%2BINVITE_philly.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 286px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lTyB399Cyq0/Tlab4bOEzdI/AAAAAAAAAEY/m2P4deAUoeE/s400/UNCAPPED%2BINVITE_philly.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5644870576637267410" border="0" /></a>This Saturday, August 27th 2011, we're playing a VICE Magazine party curated by THE RAVEONETTES! The show is free with an RSVP. So let's say a big FUCK YOU to HURRICANE IRENE and all take shelter in the legendary SIGMA SOUND STUDIOS. This is where DAVID BOWIE did mountains of cocaine and wrote songs with LUTHER VANDROSS! We go on at 10pm. The great READING RAINBOW plays at 11pm. I'm suggesting everyone brings candles and dresses as their favorite Gamble &amp; Huff act. <br /> <br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/712747165037846951-7259231866503057405?l=thehomophones.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>THE HOMOPHONEShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00318810556454764365noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-712747165037846951.post-22406031020168476842011-04-08T22:42:00.000-07:002011-04-11T09:02:11.869-07:00SPRING<br /><object width="320" height="266" class="BLOG_video_class" id="BLOG_video-2b3e6cc8049e9053" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/get_player"><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><param name="flashvars" value="flvurl=http://v13.nonxt1.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3D2b3e6cc8049e9053%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1332233150%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D3B8754AEC3F08B90881E00ACE0C658B55994E3D5.1243880BA834E2BB7993482229913D173CA6D475%26key%3Dck1&amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3D2b3e6cc8049e9053%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3D-jc9Q8EmS_e4sF0hAgHUnSoEv8Y&amp;autoplay=0&amp;ps=blogger"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/get_player" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"width="320" height="266" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"flashvars="flvurl=http://v13.nonxt1.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3D2b3e6cc8049e9053%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1332233150%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D3B8754AEC3F08B90881E00ACE0C658B55994E3D5.1243880BA834E2BB7993482229913D173CA6D475%26key%3Dck1&iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3D2b3e6cc8049e9053%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3D-jc9Q8EmS_e4sF0hAgHUnSoEv8Y&autoplay=0&ps=blogger"allowFullScreen="true" /></object><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/712747165037846951-2240603102016847684?l=thehomophones.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>THE HOMOPHONEShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00318810556454764365noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-712747165037846951.post-90266297259873551062011-04-08T22:26:00.000-07:002011-04-08T22:33:46.493-07:00Yet another video I'm jealous that I didn't think of first.<br /><br /><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/LKmj13bcyR4" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="390" width="480"></iframe><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/712747165037846951-9026629725987355106?l=thehomophones.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>THE HOMOPHONEShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00318810556454764365noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-712747165037846951.post-37408463715924736082010-05-29T09:26:00.000-07:002010-05-29T09:29:20.512-07:00The Homophones are saying goodbye to our dear friend Monica.
